The lines are pale greyish-ochreous, broad and fascia-like. There is a round black discal spot and a black dot on the costa, and another, whitish-centred, on the costal end of the second line. There is a pale greyish-ochreous hindmarginal streak, preceded by a black dot below middle. The hindwings are white with a black discal dot, the second line and posterior markings as in forewings.[2]
